I've been researching different ideas for how to funk things up in online, create some positivity and, most importantly, enhance player on player interaction.

After exhaustive fieldwork, it turns out the best idea out there to achieve my goal was on familiar territory, previously trodden grounds in not one but two GTA games.

Dating.

We all have fond memories of dating in GTA:SA and GTA:IV, however it is absent within our here GTA World Los Santos.

The methodology behind a dating system would be as follows:

1. Pick a date!
To pick a date, one can browse a LifeInvader offspring site specifically for dating. Players can filter their searches based on looks and statistics, and fellow daters can post ads about favourite dating activities

2. Date!
Agree the location and meet to enjoy a variety of activities such as tennis, darts and arm wrestling, or new (old) features such as pool and bowling.

2a. Flirt!
A new mini game based on questions and answers, with the answerer choosing an option that hopefully matches the pre-agreed preferred answer of the question asker.

3. Drive home
Points can be won or lost depending on the comfort of the drive home and the preferences of the date (May like a calm ride or a fast ride)

4. Play baseball
The end result is based on a cumulative points score that equates to 1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, 4th base, home run and outta the park.

Any resulting 'action' would be similar to the current hooker in car action, but with more options and interactions, depending on the final score.

With the introduction of online GTA dating, I believe that the community will be bonded together stronger than ever, connected not just through malice, but friendship and love also.

Other benefits:

More to do
Player on player interaction substantially enhanced
Fun games
New friends and relationships

People are doing many of the things you're suggesting already. My crew leader (who was using his girl character)related a story to me about someone trying to take him on a "date" in free roam by escorting him to the movies AFTER they had driven him to the beach to watch the sunset. When they got to the theater my crew leader said that the guy had to find a limo if he wanted to continue the date. Dude ran off to find a limo...crew leader switched sessions.

Your suggestion of dating puts visions in my head of a bunch of boy-gamers trying to solicit sex from the "girl"-gamers. Free Roams filled with people in their apartments trying to "e-get it on" in that bed.

I've been thinking quite a bit lately about something we can all relate to, something that is unquestionably, inescapably… American. I am referring, of course, to our great national pastime - baseball. Or so it had been. That's right, America. Before we were devastated by atomic war, each state had its OWN professional baseball team. Imagine, a perfect, cloudless day. The sun is warm and welcoming. And on the horizon, they appear, like knights of yore, armed with bats of ash and hickory. Their name? The Capital Congressmen. Their purpose? To make you, dear America, revel in the joys of sport and sunshine, if only for an afternoon. Now ask yourself this: What if the Capital Congressmen could live again? What if they could compete with baseball teams from Pennsylvania, or Maryland? Put your faith in John Henry Eden, great America, and baseball will live again! Comfort, recreation, healthy competition - all will live again! This country WILL live again!

So, Male Character (male IRL) flirts with female character (probably male IRL) and their little cartoons get freaky....Then the male character guy gets all freaked out when he finds out he just E-F'd another dude. GTA: Steal cars, shoot stuff, blow stuff up, and shoot eachother.... It's not like actual females don't get harassed enough by virgin teens with hormone problems. Get a porn, dude.
